Experiment Name: Experiment on Amplitude Modulation using MATLAB Simulator

Objective:
✓ To study the function of Amplitude Modulation (under modulation, perfect modulation &
over modulation) and also to calculate the modulation index.
Experiment Tools: MATLAB 2020a
Theory:
Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique utilized in electronic communication, most
ordinarily for transmitting data by means of a carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the
amplitude that is the signal quality of the carrier wave differs with respect to that of the message
signal being transmitted.
Amplitude modulation in MATLAB can be achieved by using the ammod() function.
Syntax: y = ammod(x, Fc, Fs, ini_phase, carramp)
Parameters:
✓ x: amplitude signal
✓ Fc: carrier signal frequency
✓ Fs: sampling frequency
✓ ini_phase: initial phase in the modulated signal y in radians
✓ carramp: carrier amplitude of the modulated signal
✓ Returns: amplitude modulated (AM) signal
